Red Sonja is on the loose in the Big Apple—and the followers of Kulan Gath are determined to track her down. But they underestimate the She-Devil; she’s adapting quickly to her new surroundings with the help of some new allies that include Max, a New York City cop with a secret past…

Called it...Kulan Gath....again...how is this guy the Dr.Doom of Red Sonja?

A new chapter for the Queen of the Hyrkanian Age. Our favorite warrior has faced the toughest of demons, foes and strange magic, but nothing has prepared this 6 ft. tall barbarian for…the modern world. Emerging from a subway construction site in New York City, confronted by cops and guns, Sonja fights for her survival in a new and hostile world. Is she here by accident or by design? Who brought her here, and why? By the creative team of Amy Chu (Poison Ivy, KISS) and Carlos Gomez (Dresden Files).

Judging from the Rubi cover, Im guessing the bad guy is Kulan Gath again...even though they are using him as the bad guy for Pathfinder Worldscape....

So Dynamite have announced a new Red Sonja ongoing in December, starting with an #0 written by Amy Chu and drawn by Carlos Gomez.

Well looks like the bikini is back (and actually looks skimpier than before), interesting that Dynamite has so quickly dismissed the "brave new direction" of the previous series.

So anyway, Chu states she wishes to take Sonja out of her "comfort zone" and put her in new exciting challenges, sounds good...

Erm...why is Sonja fighting a train? Sighs... So the new exciting challenges, is rehashing the world/time jumping of Marvel Team Up, Prophecy and Swords of Sworrows...seriously Dynamite, are you that bereft of ideas?

So the solicit for June are out, and Sonja is only getting two covers per issue now, this and a black and white retailers variant...sign of the times? Also..is it just me or is the cover art getting worse?

I have it from a pretty reliable source that Fox’s X-Men franchise director Bryan Singer is currently developing an R-rated TV series based on Red Sonja. Now by saying R-rated that narrows down the places the series could run to something like HBO / Showtime or a streaming service like Netflix / Amazon.

Of course Luke Lieberman is involved seeing as he owns the property and will be executive producing along with Jason Taylor via Singer’s production company Bad Hat Harry. Singer will be directing and producing it along with Stephen L’Heureux and his Solipsist Films. And the money is coming from TWC/Dimension.

Red Sonja was adapted for live-action with Brigette Nielson and Arnold Schwarzenegger back in 1985. The character made her comic debut in Conan the Barbarian #23 back in 1975 from writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith. She was loosely based on the Robert E. Howard character Red Sonya of Rogatino who first appeared in the Conan short story The Shadow of the Vulture in 1934. Currently the character has an on-going comic series published by Dynamite Entertainment and had a four-issue crossover with Conan last year.
